Where are the police bootlickers...?
The profound stupidity of your remark immediately qualifies you for Code Orange membership, possibly even executive committee appointment.
From my home page:
“Introducing CODE ORANGE!!! Free Republic’s Jack-Booted-Thug-We- Hate-Cops Group! CODE ORANGE is just like CODE PINK! Code Pink hates the military because they keep America safe abroad. They hate everything about the military. CODE ORANGE hates the police. They keep us safe here. Same mentality. So enjoy CODE ORANGE FREEPERS! Maybe CODE ORANGE and CODE PINK can hold combined rallies.
Here are some of the signs you might be eligible to join CODE ORANGE: There are 800,000 local, state, and federal police in the US.
1. If you think they are there to protect us and enforce the law, sorry, you are only a conservative. If you think every one of them is a power mad, jack booted thug just salivating over the thought of taking our guns away, you could be a CODE ORANGE prospect.
2. If you think a cop did something questionable in the performance of his duty and you think he should be investigated by internal affairs, the district attorney, or the feds, you are a conservative. If you think he is going to get away with it because all cops are dirty, the rules don’t apply to them, and if you had your way he would be thrown in prison without trial and raped, then you’re the kind of CODE ORANGE poster for us.
3. If you find a thread where it is about police actions, there are limited facts and you want more before you decide what to think about it, you are a loser conservative. If you start banging on the keyboard with your pocket Constitution and screaming about NAZI’s, concentration camps, Communism, totalitarianism, jack booted thugs, bootlickers, and wondering if you have enough ammunition stored in the attic, don’t go back on your meds, think about joining CODE ORANGE.
4. If you think it a bit hysterical that a single incident involving a police action allows you to hate 800,000 police officers, then you are a statist boot licking disgrace. However, if the rural cop in nowhere county upstate Kentucky gets caught drunk off duty and it makes the papers, then a CODE ORANGE member will think it right that all cops everywhere are dirty.
5. CODE ORANGE has as their mascot Mumia Abu Jamal. After all, he executed a cop. He was striking a blow against the jack booted thugs. He saw the police the same way as CODE ORANGE see the police.
SO, let’s pretend that CODE ORANGE and their sister group CODE PINK get their way. The military is disbanded and the police are disbanded. Then everything will be peachy. No military means no war. No police mean no crime. Unlock the prisons. Empty the jails. Tear down the speed signs and shut off the traffic lights. Throw away the law books because there won’t be anyone to enforce them. Enjoy the society you have created.
Otherwise, how about stop pissing on the people you employ to keep the peace? Sound reasonable CODE PINK and CODE ORANGE?”
Maybe people with a functioning brain want to know the whole story. As for you, don’t worry, if you run across a fact later on just lie down until the pain goes away.
I see the criminal bootlickers are here.
Cops have to realize they are not safe from the abuse of an out of control police force, either. Their kids are not safe. Their wives are not safe... All of us are endangered when the constitutional constraints on the State are set aside for brute power of those in authority. Absolute power corrupts absolutely.
I hope legal and police reform is coming along quickly.
